Received x2 Sound Lites this week, very happy with them overall but as with my Ultra they refuse to connect to WiFi 6E.
I messaged Wiim and basically received the same reply that I received a year ago when asked about WiFi 6E on the Ultra:

Thank you for reaching out. The WiiM Sound Lite currently does not support connecting to 6GHz Wi-Fi, although its hardware is capable of doing so. This functionality will be enabled in a future software update.

I don't understand how they keep advertising these products as 6E capable but they simply aren't (yet).
Maybe put an asterisk next to 6E and say in the small print 'feature coming soon'.
I know everyone will say 2.4 or 5ghz is better etc etc but it's not the point, don't advertise something that isn't working.
 
For the Ultra it says ‚upgradable to 6E‘ which corresponds with the answer by WiiM.

Wifi 6 does not include 6 GHz. So they are not explicitly advertising 6E, but correctly stating that it is a future feature (which nobody needs🤣).
